John Kent (Randolph Scott), a former star football player at Harvard, goes to Paris with his friend Huck Haines (Fred Astaire) and the latter's dance band, the Wabash Indianians. Alexander Voyda (Luis Alberni) has booked the band, but refuses to let them play when he finds the musicians are not the Indians he expected, but merely from Indiana (Huck Haines and his Indianians Band).
John turns to the only person he knows in Paris for help, his Aunt Minnie (Helen Westley), who owns the fashionable "Roberta" gown shop. While there, he meets her chief assistant (and secretly the head designer), Stephanie (Irene Dunne). John is quickly smitten with her.
Meanwhile, Huck unexpectedly stumbles upon someone he knows very well. "Countess Scharwenka", a temperamental customer at Roberta's, turns out to be his hometown sweetheart Lizzie Gatz (Ginger Rogers). She gets Huck's band an engagement at the nightclub where she is a featured entertainer.
Two things trouble John. One is Ladislaw (Victor Varconi), the handsome Russian deposed prince and doorman who seems too interested in Stephanie. The other is the memory of Sophie (Claire Dodd), the snobbish, conceited girlfriend he left behind after a quarrel over his lack of sophistication and polish.
When Aunt Minnie dies unexpectedly without leaving a will, John inherits the shop. Knowing nothing about women's fashion and that his aunt intended for Stephanie to inherit the business, he persuades Stephanie to remain as his partner. Correspondents flock to hear what a football player has to say about feminine fashions. Huck gives the answers, making a lot of weird statements about the innovations John is planning to introduce.
Sophie arrives in Paris, attracted by John's good fortune. She enters the shop, looking for a dress, but is dissatisfied with everything Stephanie shows her. Huck persuades her to choose a gown that John had ordered discarded as too vulgar. When John sees her in it, they quarrel for the final time.
John reproaches Stephanie for selling Sophie the gown. Terribly hurt, Stephanie quits the shop. With Roberta's putting on a fashion show in a week, Huck takes over the design work, with predictably bad results. When Stephanie sees his awful creations, she is persuaded to return to save Roberta's reputation.
The show is a triumph, helped by the entertaining of Huck, Countess Scharwenka, and the band. (A pre-stardom Lucille Ball, with platinum blond hair, appears uncredited in her first RKO film[4] as a model wearing an elaborate feather cape, after the vocal by Dunne, in the fashion show.[5]) The closing sensation is a gown modeled by Stephanie herself. At the show, John overhears that she and Ladislaw are leaving Paris and mistakenly assumes that they have married. Later, he congratulates her for becoming a princess. When she informs him that Ladislaw is merely her cousin and that the title has been hers since birth, the lovers are reunited. Huck and Lizzie, who decide to get married, do a final tap dance sequel.

这片子表面看上去是在反讽“素食主义者”，实际上是用屠夫视角将牲畜“拟人化”，既讽刺了素食主义者的天真幼稚偏执，又讽刺了肉食主义者的冷漠与缺乏同理心，可以说是两者皆黑了。
各種政治不正確大吐槽看得很歡樂，只是結局也太突然了……另外，中文翻譯抖機靈真的很惡心……
好久没有看到这么优秀的喜剧片了，尤其是配合着动物世界的部分
太搞笑了，美中不足的是结尾有点仓促，要是朋友肉贩子吃过伊朗猪肉后也开始贩卖就完美了
同样是weird惊悚喜剧类，《在糟糕的日子里》完胜本片。不管是乱来的程度（拍大腿笑岔气），还是血腥惊悚所带来的刺激感。这作就只是反胃又反胃...把种族主义的狂热、极端套在素食主义者身上就很离谱，还生造了个肉食和素食的二元对立，这么反人类真的好吗... ps居然还有欢愉的女主，可惜这里好纸片，一定要给反派配个橱窗小婊砸也太无聊了。
故事比漫画都随意 纯粹为了反zzzq的本子 几个动物世界的借鉴倒是新颖的紧 哈哈哈

越看越像闹剧可又畏手畏脚了，
法国人拍这种黑色幽默是真有一套。一开场就很抓人，节奏很快，跑上来10分钟就开始把ren大卸八块了。观影过程很流畅，及其紧凑，没有很浮夸的剧情。以往对法国电影是敬而远之的，但这部戏又让我路转粉。
拍摄的很业余剪辑很差 但是题材和对话有意思想法很不错
怪异的片子。男主长得很可爱。黄秋生的梗挺逗。
够变态 妻子pua高手 一句话 让男人为我杀了30人
素食 环保 都陆续跌下神坛，下一个会是谁呢？
不出五年这片子绝壁会被好莱坞翻拍。6.5/10 22/06/15
虽然有点儿重口味但还是挺逗的。。。年轻的小胖子居然是心脏病犯了。。。这对夫妻真是丧心病狂了！对应的动物世界也挺逗的。。。
3+，屠夫狩猎素食者，冲突加剧，双方都走向极端，忘乎所以。
演员演到崩溃边缘的演技太好了。

黑色幽默也有可以思考的↓
